Frank Ocean - Songs For Women Lyrics

If I was singing songs just to sing the songs
Or if I was singing 'cause that's what the bitches wanted
I couldn't play guitar like Van Halen
Had no secret chords like Saint David

But you still came around, ate your lunch with me
Used to park your car to try to bus with me
But I would say, "Girl, don't be dumb"
I'm riding shotgun

We could go to my house after school
After school, after school
'Cause my dad don't clock off till late
Off till late, off till late

We could kick it in the living room
Looking through my whole vinyl collection
And you could teach me how to slow dance or something
And I'ma give you chills harmonizing to Otis, Isley, Marvin

And every time somebody asked me
If I sing songs to get at women, I say, "Yeah"
They say, "No fair, no fair, that's cheating"
I say, "Shit, oh well, oh well"

And every time a nigga asks me
If I sing songs to get at women, I say, "Yeah"
They say, "No fair, no fair, that's cheating"
I say, "Woah, don't judge 'cause hell if you were me"

You'd be singing to her like la, da, da, da, da
La, da, da, da, da, la, da, da, da, da

Now I'm in the lab, always working late
Always sleeping past the breakfast she makes
She used to stop by, come and holla at me
Put her purse down and try to battle rap me
She don't do that no more, no more, no more

Don't even listen to the songs I record
But she be banging that Drake in my car

I'm so far gone
She stay blasting trey and his songs
All damn day long
It's like she never heard of me, heard of me

Now every time somebody asks me
If I sing songs to get my women, I say, "Naw"
They say, "Okay, I don't believe it"
I say, "Nope, I swear, I never do it"

And every time a nigga asks me
If I sing songs to get at women, I say, "Naw"
They say, "Who do you think you're kidding
I know you, you stole my girlfriend", ooh, ah, yeah

Fair enough
You see I just don't play fair
But it's fair enough
'Cause your girl broke my heart in half

Now I'm singing la, da, da, da
'Bout heartbreak
And now I'm singing la, da, da, da, da
'Bout love lost, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
